All language subtitles for Ed s04e09 The Proposal

Previously on Ed. Right that second, I
looked at Jennifer and I realized I was

falling in love.

So the question is, does Jennifer think
about me the way I think about her?

Wait, that was unexpected.

I'm going to get going.

No, wait.

Why didn't you move to New York with me?

I guess it's complicated, Carol. Maybe
it's really obvious. How is it really

obvious? I'm not the one.

That is not true.

Then move to New York with me.

What's on your mind, Bubba?

The very idea of scrapping my life and
stuck in a movie in New York City is

pretty damn scary.

And? So I'm going to move to New York
City and ask Carol Bessie to marry me.

you serious?

Congratulations!

Oh.

Have you ever seen anything more
beautiful?

Never.

Driver, we're getting out.

We are? Yeah.

Why are we going down here?

Hot dogs.

I know a guy down here sells the best
hot dogs. He's going to love these dogs.

We're here for hot dogs.

That's right, hot dogs.

Oh. Well, what's going on?

Why are there ballerinas?

Ed? Yep?

Is that our bench from the pond? Yes, it
is.

You didn't bring me here for hot dogs,
did you? No, I didn't.

String quartet? String quartet.

Ballerinas? Ballerinas. Rose petals?
Rose petals. If I didn't know better, I

would say that you... Carol.

I love you.

I know the wrist would sound like a
romantic cliche.

I'd be deeply honored if you'd be mine.
Ed, Ed. What?

You can't propose like that. It's
cheesy.

I don't know. What am I supposed to do?
I'm not going to propose like you did.

Hey, is that the wrong going to a nice
dinner, ordering a bottle of wine,

pulling out the ring and popping the
question? What was the name of the

restaurant again?

You're missing the point. The name of
the restaurant was? I was young. It

with an H, I think. I can't quite
recall.

Hula hands. Sorry.

Hula hands. I proposed to hula hands.
Hula hands. You proposed to hula hands.

That's right. I forgot.

You didn't forget, nor will I ever.

I'm in the sky tonight There I can

keep by your side Watching the wide
world

riot and hide now

I'll be coming home next year.

Honey, I think that's your parents
coming down the street. Yep.

Oh, come on, Mike. It's not going to be
that bad.

A man is an overbearing ass, hon. That
man is your father.

Yeah, and while I'm truly grateful for
all the siring and stuff, it doesn't

I have to like him.

Well, Mike, why don't you try talking to
him about your feelings for once?

For some reason, the ring -tailed trout
doesn't talk about its feelings to the

Appalachian hawk.

Why? Because the Appalachian hawk will
eat it? The Appalachian hawk is an

overbearing ass.

How's my granddaughter?

She's napping and she cannot wait to see
you.

Hi, Mary.

Hi, doll. How are you?

Oh, well.

The Tin Man.

Ed? Hello.

Can you hear me in there?

Somebody take his pulse. See if he's
living.

Oh, God.

Knock it off, Ed.

Tin Man.

Catch.

Get the back, Ed.

Mr.

Rothman, please.

That's fine. I'll hold.

Sherman, my 2 o 'clock to 3 .30 also
holds all my calls unless there's

calling about the watch. What are you
doing?

Ed, I didn't see you there. What are you
doing in my office?

In your office? Don't you remember you
gave us the bowling alley? This is my

office. Now Shirley works for me. Have I
shown you my plans for the new sign?

Okay, so you will recall that deal
depended on my moving to New York City.

don't start throwing your big lawyer
words at me.

Depended? I'm leaving now.

Conflict makes me uncomfortable.

I packed out once in the lumber section
of a Home Depot after the sales clerk

refused to sell me the proper amount of
plywood.

Hello? Hi, it's Stephen.

Yes, thanks for taking my call. Right.

No, it's good to hear from you, too.

Listen, I talked yesterday about...
That's right, that's me. The same Ed

Stephens. Right. I talked to you
yesterday about getting some of the New

City ballet dancers to perform at a
certain function that I have coming up.

I understand, I understand, but I tell
you what, it's a win -win -win situation

for all concerned, really. For arts and
for culture, no, no, no, no. I don't

want anything to do with the Super The
Money Club, no!

Ha!

Telemarketers.

Hi. Hi.

This is a... surprise?

Yeah, it's kind of spur of the moment.
No, I'm glad you came back. I thought we

could use the time to talk.

Come on, I'll drive you home.

Actually, I'm, uh, I'm going to stay at
Molly's.

What? Yeah, I just thought maybe it
would be for the best until we had a

to figure things out. We don't have
things to figure out. We do.

All right, well, let's figure things
out. You start.

Uh, you know, Molly's waiting outside
right now. Maybe we could have dinner

tomorrow night.

To figure things out? Mm -hmm. Eight o
'clock, smiling goat.

Okay. Well, you know what? Why don't we
go somewhere, you know, a little nicer,

a little fancier? You know, candlelight.
You know, to figure things out.

I kind of miss the smiling goat.

Yeah.

The smiling goat it is.

I don't understand where they went.

The guest in my house, she's telling me
where he's going.

They're just driving around town.

Oh, no, no. My dad thinks he's always
got to be in control.

Well, not in this house. Not in this
house, honey. In this house, you're in

control.

That's right.

But I'm second in command, and I think
that, you know, that should meet.

Yo. Hey.

Looky, looky, here comes cooking.

Hey, what you got there, Dad?

I guarantee.

Guarantee? I guarantee that this will be
a Thanksgiving to

remember. How so?

Well, this fine piece of modern
technology is going to allow us to

Thanksgiving turkey the way the good
Lord above intended.

How? Go fry the sandwich.

You got a second?

I know that I'm disrupting.

Your routine.

I don't want you to be scared.

I'll be out here with your mom helping
with the oil.

Okay, hear me well.

There's no way we're frying our turkey
this Thanksgiving.

Honey, it's going to be fine. We're
roasting.

End of discussion.

Oh, hey, I forgot to mention. I was
talking to the guys over at the Red

Diner. They said they would like to
carry our pies.

Great.

Well, rumor has it that the lovely,
irresistible Miss Jennifer Young has no

plans for Thanksgiving.

Don't start with me, Stubbs. Although I
did see Paul Sundman sniffing around

here the other day. I think he might
have asked her out to dinner.

Paul Sundman?

You mean the tall guy with those shirts?

Yo, she's not going to have Thanksgiving
dinner with him.

I think she said she'd let him know.

Hey. You know what's on my Ben Franklin
-ism day calendar today?

The early bird catches the worm.

Oh, my God, Paul Sundman is here.

Paul!

Oh, that Paul Sundman, what a great guy,
huh? He's so fun -loving. He's real

tall. Hey, hey, hey, you know what I'm
going to do?

I'm going to open up Stucky Bowl on
Thanksgiving Day, and I'm going to cook

big meal for those that's less fortunate
than myself.

That's what I'm going to do. Hey,
Stubbs, would you like to help out? I'd

to.

Hey, Shirley, how about you?

I mean, if I can be in charge of yams
and all yam -related activity.

Done and done.

All right.

Jennifer, would you like to pitch in?

Sure. Why not?

Oh, man. All right.

Now we're in the Thanksgiving dinner
business.

I'm screwed.

Calm down. You're not screwed.

You're not screwed. I'm screwed. I was
thinking New York City in a week, and

I got a proposal stuck within 48 hours.
I'm screwed. I need a plan. So, Carol,

will you marry me? How's that for a
plan?

You know what I should do?

What? Maybe we should bring back the old
suit of armor. Remember that from the

beginning? Yeah, from the beginning,
then again in the middle.

Didn't you do it once more?

Actually, that last time, that was her.

Yeah. You know, I think at this point
we'd be better off buying a suit of

instead of renting it. You're right.
You're right, my fine -chiseled friend.

know what? The suit of armor's old. It's
been done. I need something new. Maybe

something with ducks and a donkey.

What are you going to do with those? I
don't know. I'm just brainstorming here.

Quite a storm it is.

How may I help you? Actually, you can
help me, my good man, because I'm

interested in buying...

A diamond engagement ring? Fantastic.

You bet it's fantastic.

What's your name again?

Ryan. Ryan. Ah -ha! Hey, Lunk, Ryan,
this is great. For the rest of my life,

I'll always remember that the man from
whom I bought Carol Vessi's engagement

ring was named Ryan.

Ryan! Oh, boy. I see.

All right, let me see the rocks. Bring
out the rocks, Ryan!

I beg your pardon?

Let me see the diamond engagement rings,
please.

Surely. I apologize for him.

Yes.

Okay, you've eaten a half a roll of Tums
in about two minutes.

No. What's up with that?

It's about dinner with Ed.

Wow, a preemptive tongue strike.

Shows a lot of faith in the smiling
ghost cuisine.

That's not what I mean.

Are you that nervous?

Of course I'm that nervous.

Molly, the entire rest of my life could
hinge upon the outcome of this dinner.

I could leave there with Ed moving to
New York, or I could leave there with us

broken up forever.

But no matter what happens for the rest
of my life, I will look back on this

dinner and know that that's where it
went down. I can't go.

You have to go. I'm sick.

You're not sick.

You could break my arm. You could just
punch me in the ribs until you hear

something pop.

Okay, Carol, you've got to do this, all
right? Whether for good or for bad, you

have got to bring it to a head. I know.
I know, you're right.

Please, please make it for good. I love
him.

Have another tongue.

Or would that be have another tongue?
What do you think?

Actually, at this point, I don't care.

Understood.

What's the deal with this one here?

That one has been cut to have extra
facets.

Yes, it's beautifully faceted.

Seems a little cloudy, though, don't you
think?

How about this one?

That one is an FG color VVS1. It's very
nice.

Yeah, it seems kind of dead.

How about this one?

Will you please just pick a damn
diamond, Ed?

This one's beautifully fastened, but
cloudy.

This one's dead. We're all going to be
dead by the time you make a decision.

What is wrong with you?

He gets to me.

Hey, oh, Shirley, how many turkeys do
you think we need?

How many people do you expect?

I'd say about 30.

I've got a simple calculation I learned
from the Butterball Turkey Hotline.

You'll need 12 ,000 turkeys.

12 ,000?

That doesn't sound right.

No, it doesn't.

What you got?

You'll need 0 .4 of one turkey.

Can I? Surely?

Hey, Sturgeon Boys, let me ask you
something, man.

We close on Thanksgiving, right? Yeah,
so the employees can spend time with

their families. Oh, that's cool. That's
cool. Hey, you think I can open up that

day?

Yeah, what, you don't want to hang with
your family?

Nah, nah, that ain't it.

You don't want to hang with me? I ought
to be over at Mike and Nancy's. Nah,

nah, I was thinking maybe I'll just
throw a benefit dinner. You know, for

less fortunate. Something for the stucky
villains that have no place to go.

That's a great idea.

You need my help?

Nah, nah, Jennifer Young said she'd
volunteer to cook.

Jennifer Young?

Interesting. I wonder if someone's in
the kitchen with Eli action.

Oh, nah, nah, it's not what you think,
man. Come on, player.

It's not?

Yeah, a little bit, a little bit.

You go to it.

Holla!

How are things with Michael?

Good. Yeah, things are really good.

Sex?

I'm sorry, what did you say?

How's the sex?

With Michael.

Are you looking for specifics or a more
general okay kind of response?

A one to ten scale would be specific
enough.

Oh.

I'm sure it's just a phase. No, I've
lost weight. I've changed my hair. I

thought about having plastic surgery
until I saw Nip Talk.

But I mean, that can be very invasive.

Yes, yes, it can.

Absolutely. Listen, Mary, some men, they
reach a certain age where they may have

performance issues.

Nancy, would you ask Michael to speak to
us? Huh?

No, I would ask Michael, but I'm his
mother. I don't want to embarrass him. I

could never.

Bring this up with Russ. Something like
this.

Right. I don't know.

I don't know, Mary. I'm not sure that
Michael can talk to Russ about something

like this. No, he could.

Because he's a doctor.

I really need to know this.

And if that's what it is, then perhaps
Michael could suggest some treatment.

Maybe.

Yes.

Please. Oh, Mary. Yes, of course. I'll
ask Michael to talk.

Will you please... No.

Cal Vesey.

Will you take me, Edward Jeremy Stevens,
to be... No, no.

Hey, Cal.

Well, here we are again at the Smiling
Goat.

Why do you think we got hitched?

Will you do me the honor? No, the
pleasure. No, the honor. Will you do me

That's a look.

Cal.

Will you please marry me?

Hey, Cal. Whoa.

Ah!

Oh.

Boy, the smiling goat seems surprisingly
romantic tonight, don't you think?

Seems about like it always does. Does
it? It does, it does, doesn't it?

Yeah, you know, I guess maybe I never
really noticed that romanticism exists

within these very walls. I guess I never
noticed that.

I guess.

Surprisingly romantic.

Surprisingly romantic. You and I find
ourselves in a surprisingly romantic

situation, don't you think? Ed? Yes?

We need to talk.

We are talking.

About the future.

Okay.

I believe in the future.

Everything will be extremely small.

Except hats.

People have inexplicably huge hats in
the future.

Our future.

Our future. You want to talk about our
future.

Right, let's do that.

Let's talk about our future.

Well... This is very

businesslike all of a sudden, isn't it?
I mean, you know, it's gotten very cold

and calculating, almost like a business
merger or something. Before it was

romantic and now businesslike. What are
you talking about?

I just think we should talk about the
future a little later.

You told her I'd talk to him about what?
Shh, keep your voice down. They're

right next door.

Was it temporary insanity or what? I'm
sorry, what could I say?

Oh, no.

I couldn't say no. Your mother pleaded
with me.

Except when you're in a situation like
that, pretend you don't speak English.

Honey, this might be just the thing to
break open your relationship.

That was pushing it, huh? Yeah. Yeah, I
thought so.

Oh, yeah, uh -huh.

Ah, Hilter, you can.

All right, that's perfect. Thank you,
Mr. Hilter.

All right, you're the cat who ate the
turkey.

The turkey? I was making a seasonal
adjustment.

It's a fine adjustment.

Michael, I have a plan.

Awesome. Where is it?

I proposed to Carol Bessie.

You didn't do that last night? I thought
about it, but you know what? Last night

wasn't the moment. You know what?

It wasn't a story.

It wasn't a tale that one day I could
tell to our children, or our children's

children, or our children's children's
children. What about your children's

children's children's children?

Do you want to hear the story? Don't
you?

It'll give my life new meaning.

Please. Sure.

So, here's the plan, Mike. At 8 p .m.

Okay, I pick up one Carol Bessie. I take
her to the Stackable Revival Theater

where we attend a screening of The
Divine Secrets of the Yaya Sisterhood.

Now, what?

What Carol Bessie does not realize?

I have actually rented out the entire
theater. And instead of The Divine

of the Yaya Sisterhood coming on, The
Carol Bessie Story is going to come on.

The Carol Bessie Story.

The Carol Bessie Story. I'm going to
make a movie about Carol Bessie's life.

in that movie, that's where I'm going to
propose.

So you're going to make a movie. I'm
going to make a movie. One day.

Yeah, it's perfect. It's fine, because
what someone doesn't know is that

unwittingly left her scrapbooks and her
photo albums up in my attic, all right?

So I'm just going to take all that stuff
and paste it into the computer. Are you

crazy? You can't even play computer
solitaire.

Crazy like a turkey.

Come on, that was good.

I didn't care for it.

Yes.

Yes.

Carol, I will be right there.

I'll be right there.

I'm in the shower.

I'm in the bath.

I'm in the bathtub.

I'm getting out of the bathtub, Carol.

And I'm just putting on my pants.

I've got my pants on.

And I'm putting on my shirt. And now I'm
just, I'm stepping out of the, stepping

out of the, cowling off, putting on
another shirt because I like that look.

coming to you.

Hey, this isn't my surprise.

You took a bath in the middle of the
day?

Yeah, yeah. You know what? I had some,
well, bath beads that were, like,

expiration. I thought, you know, why not
just take a bath and get those bath

beads out of the way and get new ones?
Ed, I came here this weekend for a

reason, to talk about where we're
headed. And, you know, for some reason,

not talking.

We're talking.

We're talking.

Ed, is there some reason why you're
avoiding all this? Because if there is,

can tell me. I'm a big girl. No, I want
to talk about it. I do. You know what I

think? I just... What?

I...

I

just think we really need to go see the
Divine Secrets of the Yaya Sisterhood.

What? Yeah, I think we should go see
the... I think we should go see the

It's playing tomorrow night at the
Stuckyville Revival House, and I think

should go see it tomorrow night at 8 p
.m. What do you think?

Tomorrow night? Tomorrow.

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving.

I know. It's Thanksgiving. And you know
what? Thanksgiving is such a special

day. It's one day out of 365 and it's so
special and a different day. And I

thought what we need to do is be normal
again.

Going to see The Divine Secrets of the
Yaya Sisterhood on Thanksgiving is

normal? Yeah, yeah. I know what you're
thinking. It's not normal. But I think

that it's routine for us to go see a
movie. So I think the sooner we slip

into a routine, then the easier the
conversation will flow. So we'll go see

movie and then we'll talk all night if
you like.

We will go see Divine Secrets of the
Yaya Sisterhood all Thanksgiving to be

normal. Good. Okay.

Just like the pilgrim. Just like the
pilgrim. That's a good one, pal.

Okay, tin man.

I'm ready to try my creation.

Goggles?

Gloves? Come on, Dad. It's only a
simulation.

Okay, let's...

Simulate. All right.

You know, when the hot oil gets in
there, you're going to be glad you were

prepared.

Drop the bird into the pot.

Okay. Dropping the bird in the pot.
Right.

We're now both dead.

It wasn't my fault. The whole pulley
thing didn't work.

You know, I don't think you're the right
man for this job.

You know, Dad,

sometimes a man wants to do certain
things he can't always do.

Right. Say, for example, a man wants to
climb Mount Everest. Well, could be he

can't climb Mount Everest, even though
he really wants to climb Mount Everest.

What are you babbling about?

Well, it may just be that he can't climb
Mount Everest.

Even though he really wants to climb
Mount Everest.

Could be that when he was younger, he
climbed Mount Everest three, four, five

times. And all of a sudden, can't make
it all the way to the top.

Nothing, no shame in that.

It's a fact of life.

Mount Everest is tall.

Have you been using a lot of industrial
strength cleaning products lately?

We go eat an apple.

My son, the talking horse.

Edward?

Hey, what's the matter? I'm an idiot.

I know that. What's wrong?

I blow it.

Is this a movie?

Yeah, it's a movie.

That's pretty good.

No, I didn't. I mean, it's fine. I'm at
26 straight hours doing it, right? I

finally finished the movie, and when I'm
done, I find this. One of Carol's

scrapbooks. What do you got?

My favorite things by Carol Bess. What
is this?

It's a list.

A list Carol made when she was 12 years
old. A list of all her favorite things.

What does it have to do with the movie?

What?

What does it have to do with the movie?

Yeah. You joshing me? I can't use the
movie to propose anymore.

Why is that?

Because the movie isn't the perfect
proposal anymore, is it? What's the

proposal?

The list.

The list is the perfect proposal.

I assemble all the things on that list
and give them to Carol. That's

perfection. Picking strawberries for my
grandfather's garden when it's 7 .30 in

July and the sun is setting.

How are you going to get all this stuff?

I don't know, but I have 11 hours.

Must be tough to be you. You have no
idea.

Oh, I think I do.

Oh,

good old Stuckyville High.

Don't tell me you miss it. It's just so
weird. It already feels like I've been

away forever.

Yeah, well, everything here is exactly
the way it was when you left.

Except for that.

That's new.

Who's Keith W.?

You know, ninth grader.

The one with the huge ass.

Yeah. Okay,

you got me. I miss this place, I do.

No, come on, you can't. You've been
trying to get out of here for years. No,

it's not that.

It's just that I... Whoa, what?

Huh?

What? I have never seen anybody else's
handwriting on my board, and you know

what? It's weird and creepy, and I have
much better penmanship than this guy.

Pen -woman -ship, chalk -woman -ship.
Carol, having second thoughts about New

York?

No, I didn't say that. I said, yeah, I
miss it here, but even if I wanted to

come back, it's not an option.

What? No!

You could write from here. I have subs
teaching your classes, so you could

totally... No, you don't get it.

See, if I moved back here, I would never
know if Ed would have moved to New York

to be with me.

That would make it impossible for us to
be together, and yet here we would be.

Together, in a very small town.

Not an option.

Well, look on the bright side.

I'm sure you're having a better day than
Keith Doppley.

350 degrees.

You can hear it sizzle. You hear it?

Yeah, I hear it, Dad.

Hot fat.

Hot fat, baby.

It's like music, isn't it?

Uh -huh.

Uh -huh.

Okay, Tin Man.

All up to you now.

Lower the bird.

Lowering the bird.

Huh?

That's right.

That is right.

Very impressive, Mr. B.

Hey.

Compadre. How you been?

I'm good. I'm good, thanks. Yeah. Look
at that.

Look at this.

You know what that is?

What? That's called a facial expression.

You should look into that.

That's good. So, what have you been
doing?

Working on my marriage proposal,
actually.

Congratulations. Thank you. How's it
going? You know, it's crazy. I've been

for 32 straight hours. The whole thing's
taken on a huge level of complexity.

Well, it should.

One of the biggest things you'll ever
do.

Right, Julian?

Julian!

What's your favorite cold cut?

Do you consider American cheese to be a
cold cut?

Sorry, are you saying American cheese?

Right now, I'm just asking if you
consider American cheese to be a cold

Yes, I do. American cheese.

I'm not going to even look at Eli. I'm
not going to even look at him. I'm just

going to keep holding my napkins. I
don't care what he do, and I'm

not going to smile, and I'm definitely
not going to talk. He can talk, talk,

talk all he want, keep on talking. It
don't matter what he does. I ain't going

to even smile. I'm not going to smile.
He can make noises. I ain't going to

smile. Hawk!

I told you I wasn't going to smile.

I wasn't going to smile.

Jennifer. Jennifer.

What is with you?

Come on now. You can't stay mad at old
Eli forever.

I'm cute.

Yeah, you're cute.

Eli is back.

Come on, boo. Look, I'm sorry.

For what? I'm sorry for messing things
up.

I'm sitting here waiting on you to
decide to get around to it. No, no, I

say that. I'm just, you know. Well, I'm
not.

I tell you, it's such a relief to get
away from my old bag of gas.

What are you talking about?

I love you, Dad. He's hilarious.

Yeah, that's because he's not pimp
slapping you every five minutes.

It's so cool you got all this stuff.

You got it.

What?

We'll be right there. Mike, there's a
fire at your house.

How'd this happen? Why are you talking?

Hey. Hey.

Hi. Hi.

Hey, you okay?

I

don't

believe this.

Honey, it's going to be okay.

We're done. Our house.

Everybody's safe. That's what matters,
you know?

Yeah, you destroyed everything we own.
Well, the insurance will cover it.

Just, we've got to stay positive, Mike.
We just... Shatter our lives.

Hi.

It's not really that bad. I mean, you
know, paint, but I mean, it needed to be

decorated anyway. Russell.

No, it did.

living in a pottery barn.

What are you staring at?

You don't think it's my fault?

It was your idea to fry a turkey, Russ.

Well, I can only tell you, sweetheart,
that on the last Fourth of July, we were

over at your cousin Ricky's.

A whole lot of people there.

26 -pound turkey.

Everything went off without a hitch.
Turkey turned out just fine.

Fine. Fine, because Rick was in charge
of making the pulleys right.

You're not blaming Mike.

Please help me. No, no, Mary, I got to
call it the way I see it.

Pulleys were never right.

He had the whole thing set up ass
-ackwards.

Now, why don't you just admit that's
true?

Dad says they're going to have turkey
over at the stocky bowl.

So, let's go over there and have dinner.

Well, I guess we waited long enough. We
might as well dig in.

If you say so.

Let's eat, everybody.

Would you like some yams?

I made too many yams that you can have
this entire bowl of yams for yourself.

This bowl contains approximately 30
yams.

30 yams all for you.

Eat as many or as few as you desire.

Thank you, sweetheart.

Man, I can't believe nobody else in
Stuckyville needed some place to go on

Thanksgiving.

Indeed, it boggles the mind.

Hey, Stucky, you did put my flies up,
didn't you?

Sorry? My flies. You were supposed to...
You didn't hang out my flies, did you?

Yes. Stubbs, I'm telling you right now,
God help you, if you ain't put my flies

up, I'm gonna shove a drumstick right up
your ass.

Actually, I prefer white meat.

Hi.

Hi.

Dad.

I, uh...

Can I talk to you for a moment, please?

Sure.

Hey, excuse me. Hey, excuse me. Ed
Stevens. I'm the guy that rented the

You still want it? Well, I don't know.
Did you happen to see a blonde woman

hanging out here waiting?

She's gone already, Chief.

Dad, about what I said before, I lost my
temper,

and I apologize.

But I want you to know, if you ever need
help with any medical issue, or

anything else for that matter, I'm here.

Anyway, that's all I wanted to tell you.

Sorry I burned down your house.

Thank you.

Thanks for saying that, Dad.

It really means a lot to me.

It's starting to sound like a Lifetime
original movie.

Wait, Cal. Wait.

I'm sorry.

I am. I'm sorry. I got a good excuse. I
can explain.

It's fine. Really, it is. I just want to
go back to New York, okay?

The Burns house burned down.

What? Yeah.

Mike's dad was trying to fry a turkey or
something like that, and the whole

place went up, and there were fire
trucks and fire engines and firemen and

everything. Are you kidding me? Is
everybody okay? No, they're fine. Yeah.

They're fine. Yeah, but the house is
pretty damaged.

Yeah, but that's why I was late. I was
trying to help. I was trying to help.

That's why I was late.

Wait a minute.

What? You wouldn't make up something
like this, would you?

No, why would I do that?

I don't know, because this whole weekend
has been just so bizarre, and I came

here with one simple question. What are
we doing? And I've gotten everything but

an answer.

Until now.

Come with me.

I am not going to see The Divine Secrets
of the Yaya Sisterhood.

This will be better.

Sure,

the shame filled it and put up those
flyers, huh?

Yeah.

Aw, look at you, all pouty now.

Mr. Eli doesn't like it when the shoe's
on the other foot, does he?

What are you talking about, lady? Oh,
sure, you got no problem when it's you

stopping the kissing, but when it's me
stopping the kissing, then it's...

Jennifer, what do you want from me?

I want to know why you pulled away from
me at the pool the other night.

The reason why I pulled away from you
has nothing to do with you. Then what

it have to do with?

Can we just drop this?

I don't think so.

Look, there's a big elephant in the
room. No one seems to want to talk about

okay?

What's that?

Ooh, Jennifer, come on, man, please.

Fine. I see the elephant. I understand
the elephant.

But you don't understand the elephant.
You think you understand the elephant,

but you don't understand.

We're going to get halfway down the
road, then you're going to say to

now I understand.

Then what happens? And what makes you
think you're going to get halfway down

road with me? It was just a kiss, Eli. I
didn't see any road signs up anywhere,

you presumptuous ass.

What are you laughing at? You got a bad
for me, don't you?

You're impossible.

Hey, wait a minute.

I got a bad for you, too.

You fly, old dog.

What? You didn't put those flyers up on
purpose so Jennifer and Eli could be

alone, didn't you?

Yeah.

What are we doing at the pond?

Well, this is the exact spot we kissed
that first night. Yeah? So I... Oh, hey.

I thought it'd be the perfect spot to
give you something.

What?

Do your favorite things.

25, actually.

In no particular order.

walk from a dream.

Her head was on fire.

What was he so nervous?

He took her to the park.

She crossed her arms and lowered her
eyelids.

Someday somebody's gonna ask you.

A question that you should say yes to
Once in your life

Maybe tonight I've got a question for

had no idea

He started to cry.

He said in a good way.

He took her by the hand.

Walked her back home.

And they took the long way.

Someday somebody's gonna ask you.

Question that you should say yes to once
in your life.

Maybe tonight I got a question.

So amazing. Nobody has ever done
anything like this for me before.

I got something else to give you.

Something that wasn't on the list.

Carol Bessie.

Will you marry me?

I'll move to New York. It'll be great.

Oh, my God. I love you.

A yes.

That is most definitely a yes. Yes, yes,
yes, yes.

Yes,

yes.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

What are you doing? I've got to add
something to this list.

Oh, you're putting my name.

Any chance I can move up above the state
comes?

Let's see how the next 50 years are so
good for us.
